Re: Reed Drying Up

A couple small but obvious things:

1) many mouthpiece caps have small holes on top. A bit of electrical tape fixes that and keeps the reed moist for longer

2) If you use the Omnicap (mentioned above) while playing shows, the white one rather than the black one is much easier to spot when it gets dropped, which happens more easily with these than with regular caps. Also, being rubber they tend to bounce somewhere out of reach when they get dropped. Having a spare cap at the ready is helpful.
